Is Benedict Cumberbatch a Comic Book Fan?

I think he is. He's shown interest in various comic book characters and franchises in his interviews and public appearances.

No, Doctor Strange has been a comic book character for a long time before Benedict Cumberbatch was cast to play the role in the movies.

Benedict Cumberbatch has lent his star power to Comic Relief. He could have been involved in fundraising drives, or perhaps taken part in special shows organized by Comic Relief to generate support and funds for those in need.

I'm not sure exactly what he said. Maybe he had some negative views regarding the authenticity or quality control in fan fiction. Fan fiction often takes the characters out of the original creators' intended context, which might be a reason for his dissing.

It usually exaggerates his facial features, like his long face or distinctive eyes, to create a humorous effect.

Well, a typical Benedict Cumberbatch caricature would focus on his recognizable traits. Maybe it would make his hair look wilder or his smile wider. And it could use simple lines and bold strokes to capture his essence in a fun way.

Overall, Benedict Cumberbatch does an excellent job portraying Doctor Strange in the comic. He nails the character's complex personality and magical abilities, making the comic version really engaging.

I don't think there's an obvious or well-known link. It could be that he's been involved in projects related to comic book adaptations and has interacted with comic shop owners or staff during that process. But it's not something widely reported or common knowledge.

Benedict Cumberbatch often brings a dry and witty kind of comic relief through his unique delivery and expressions.

Some fans might have been disappointed. They probably felt that their creative expressions through fan fiction were being invalidated.
